Tree root question

In my house there was a tree cut down about 4 years ago (pic 3) Just now under the wooden decking in the picture the tiles cracked and were raised. I investigated and found these roots with this mound of growth (pic 1). I was wondering if you know what it is. Its only a meter from my house. Should I be worried? I just cut it out and filled it with sand but is there more I should do. Thank you very much for your time and help Also does anyone know what type of tree this was?

New Dolmar 7910 Chainsaw

Just loving the new Dolmar 80cc 7910 chainsaw.... Having just done my CS32 qualifications the chainsaw was awesome... It chewed through the tree trunks like it was going out of fashion... It was a bit heavy when throwing it about for snedding and a 60cc Dolmar 6100 might be better for doing that... But I guess that I will have to just get used to it and toughen up..? Can't wait to get on the next courses... Windblown & Uprooted.... And Emergancy Tree Works

Bob's library

Welcome 🤗   I decided to create a blog where I can put useful information for those who are interested in accessing info that Mainstream Media censor and don't want you to know. All I want to do is give the opportunity for those who don't have the time to trawl through the huge mountain of sites, where there is either confusing or conflicting 'facts'. It's taken me many years to open my eyes to the world I thought I knew through a long and time consuming process. Sometimes ignorance is
